Hi there! I’m Sterling!  It's been a rough month but my dad told me it's best for me to find a family that can love me as much as he did.  He is going through a really hard time and had to move out of state.  What makes it easier is that my foster mom and dad have some of the same friends as my old dad so my dad is trying to make the transition as good as possible for me!  So, with all of that said, I spent my first 3.5 years with the best dad ever who spoiled me, so you can say I come pre-spoiled for your convenience! I’m turning 4 in July 2026.

I love other dogs and I am so excited that my foster mom and dad take me and my canine foster siblings to doggie day care and wow is it fun!  I earned LOTS of awards and honorable mentions on my first day of doggie day care!   I am sort of a hit with my turned-out front feet and low-riding profile, I've got a bit of flair.   And my cartoonish ears are always perked up so I draw lots of attention because I am ridiculously cute!

My foster mom and dad say that I am a "champion blanket burrower".    I take my time getting cozy on the couch, but once I'm all snuggled in, I’m in my happy place. Oh, and I absolutely love my Kong toys! They’re perfect for chewing and for discovering yummy treats.

At night, I have my own little ritual. I am super particular about arranging my bedding. I make my foster mom and dad laugh because they say I make really  funny noises as I settle in for bed.  Let's just say I am unique and it’s all part of my charm!  I hope that you will ask to meet me!

Hi there! I’m Onyx, and I believe every dog—big or small—is my friend!  I absolutely love a good game of chase and I LOVE being the one who leads the chase.  I also love squeaky toys!

I might not look like it, but there’s definitely some hound in me, as I’m forever sniffing around before I even think about going potty. I can spend over 20 minutes with my nose to the ground, making sure I’ve inspected every spot!

My crate is my happy place—it's where I enjoy my meals and take cozy naps. When it comes to jumping, I’m light on my feet and can leap over gates in the blink of an eye! Because of my bouncy nature, it's super important for my home to have a secure fence to keep me safe during my playful escapades.

I have delicate features, with slender legs and a tiny waist, along with a sweet face that adds to my charm. While I love frolicking outside, I must admit that the doggie door sometimes makes me a bit nervous—but don’t worry, I’m always up for the challenge!
